development environments."

"Infrastructure as Code"

- FTW!

Development

Own Workstation(LAMP, XAMP, MAMP, ...)

Shared System(Linux Dev. Box in LAN)

Virtual Machine(VMware, VirtualBox, ...)

Problems!

● OSX / Windows / Linux● 32 / 64 bit● Conflicts!● Docs / Setup● Versions / Dependencies

● ⇒ "Works on my box!"

apt-get install \vagrant

(Packages for Windows, OSX, too)
